Ayuba 19
1 Sai Ayuba ya amsa,
And Job answered and said,
2 “Har yaushe za ku yi ta ba ni azaba ku kuma murƙushe ni da maganganunku?
How long will ye vex my soul, and crush me with words?
3 Yanzu sau goma ke nan kuna wulaƙanta ni, kuna kai mini hari na rashin kunya.
These ten times have ye reproached me; ye are not ashamed to stupefy me.
4 In gaskiya ne na yi laifi, kuskurena ya rage nawa.
And be it [that] I have erred, mine error remaineth with myself.
5 In kuwa za ku ɗaukaka kanku a kaina kuna ɗauka wahalar da nake sha domin na yi laifi ne,
If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, and prove against me my reproach,
6 sai ku san cewa Allah ya yi mini ba daidai ba ya kewaye ni da ragarsa.
Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath surrounded me with his net.
7 “Ko da yake na yi kuka cewa, ‘An yi mini ba daidai ba!’ Ba a amsa mini ba; ko da yake na nemi taimako, ba a yi adalci ba.
Behold, I cry out of wrong, and I am not heard; I cry aloud, but there is no judgment.
8 Ya tare mini hanya yadda ba zan iya wucewa ba; ya rufe hanyata da duhu.
He hath hedged up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.
9 Ya cire darajar da nake da ita, ya kuma cire rawani daga kaina.
He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.
10 Ya yi kaca-kaca da ni har sai da na ƙare; ya tuge begen da nake da shi kamar itace.
He breaketh me down on every side, and I am gone; and my hope hath he torn up as a tree.
11 Yana jin haushina ya lissafta ni cikin maƙiyansa.
And he hath kindled his anger against me, and hath counted me unto him as one of his enemies.
12 Rundunarsa ta zo da ƙarfi; suka kafa sansani kewaye da ni, suka zagaye tentina.
His troops have come together and cast up their way against me, and have encamped round about my tent.
13 “Ya raba ni da’yan’uwana maza; abokaina sun zama baƙi gare ni.
He hath put my brethren far from me, and mine acquaintance are quite estranged from me.
14 Dangina sun tafi; abokaina na kurkusa sun manta da ni.
My kinsfolk have failed, and my known friends have forgotten me.
15 Waɗanda sukan ziyarce ni, da masu yi mini aiki mata sun ɗauke ni baƙo.
The sojourners in my house and my maids count me as a stranger; I am an alien in their sight.
16 Na kira bawana, amma bai amsa ba, ko da yake na roƙe shi da bakina.
I called my servant, and he answered not; I entreated him with my mouth.
17 Numfashina yana ɓata wa matata rai;’yan’uwana sun ƙi ni.
My breath is strange to my wife, and my entreaties to the children of my [mother's] womb.
18 Har’yan yara suna rena ni; in sun gan ni sai su fara yi mini riyar reni.
Even young children despise me; I rise up, and they speak against me.
19 Duk abokaina sun yashe ni; waɗanda nake ƙauna sun zama ba sa ƙaunata.
All my intimate friends abhor me, and they whom I loved are turned against me.
20 Ni ba kome ba ne sai dai fata da ƙashi, da ƙyar na tsira.
My bones cleave to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.
21 “Ku tausaya mini, abokaina, ku ji tausayina, gama hannun Allah ya sauko a kaina.
Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.
22 Don me kuke fafarata kamar yadda Allah yake yi? Ba ku gaji da yagar fatata ba?
Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?
23 “Kash, da ma a ce ana rubuta maganganuna, da an rubuta su a littafi,
Oh would that my words were written! oh that they were inscribed in a book!
24 a rubuta su da ƙarfe a kan dutse don su dawwama har abada!
That with an iron style and lead they were graven in the rock for ever!
25 Na san wanda zai fanshe ni yana nan da rai, kuma a ƙarshe zai tsaya a kan duniya.
And [as for] me, I know that my Redeemer liveth, and the Last, he shall stand upon the earth;
26 Kuma bayan an hallaka fatata, duk da haka a cikin jiki zan ga Allah.
And [if] after my skin this shall be destroyed, yet from out of my flesh shall I see God;
27 Zan gan shi da kaina da idanuna, Ni, ba wani ba ne. Zuciyata ta cika da wannan tunani!
Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another: — my reins are consumed within me.
28 “In kuka ce, ‘Za ku ci gaba da matsa mini, tun da shi ne tushen damuwa,’
If ye say, How shall we persecute him? when the root of the matter is found in me,
29 sai ku ma ku ji tsoron takobin; gama fushi yakan kawo hukunci ta wurin takobi, sa’an nan za ku san cewa akwai shari’a.”
Be ye yourselves afraid of the sword! for the sword is fury against misdeeds, that ye may know there is a judgment.
